Showroom Stored 46K-Miler: 1984 Nissan 300ZX Turbo 50th Anniversary

This 1984 Nissan 300ZX Turbo is one of 5,100 50th Anniversary cars produced, and looks well kept even for a car with a claimed 45,700 miles. The seller says that it spent the last 13 years as a showroom display, but even though it’s only covered 13k miles since its last timing belt change, that was in 1995. Regardless, the car’s preferable 5-speed and impressive condition mean it’d easily be worth the trouble. Notably, asking price includes shipping to the West Coast. Find it here on Craigslist near Waialea Beach, Hawaii for $15k.

Pewter and black two-tone finish looks to be holding up very well, and apart from a couple small door dings and a scuff on the nose clip, there isn’t much else to note from a cosmetics standpoint. Aero styled wheels, turbo graphics, T-tops and pop-up lights check all the right 80’s styling boxes, and we dig the dealer optioned NISMO rear window louver too.

The black leather interior shows few signs of wear. The seller claims that all accessories are functional, and the car comes with its original floor mats, car cover and a new dashboard protector. Besides the electronic voice box, another one of the interesting features on these cars are Bodysonic seats, which were fitted with internal subwoofers individually controlled by the panel seen just behind the shifter.

The seller claims 45,700 miles on the (disappointingly) analog odometer.

The turbocharged V6 was good for a respectable 200 HP in its day, and though extra power can be summoned with bolt-ons, the originality and condition of this one means it’d probably best be left stock.

The seller says that the timing belt was replaced 13k miles and more than 20 years ago, with more recent work including fitment of new injectors and an oil change. A few undercarriage photos reveal it to be just as clean as the engine bay.
